// Goplay is a web interface for experimenting with Go code.
// It is similar to the Go Playground: http://golang.org/doc/play/
// 
// To use goplay, first build and install it:
//   $ cd $GOROOT/misc/goplay
//   $ gomake install
// Then, run it:
//   $ goplay
// and load http://localhost:3999/ in a web browser.
// 
// You should see a Hello World program, which you can compile and run by
// pressing shift-enter. There is also a "compile-on-keypress" feature that can
// be enabled by checking a checkbox.
// 
// WARNING! CUIDADO! ACHTUNG! ATTENZIONE!
// A note on security: anyone with access to the goplay web interface can run
// arbitrary code on your computer. Goplay is not a sandbox, and has no other
// security mechanisms. Do not deploy it in untrusted environments. 
// By default, goplay listens only on localhost. This can be overridden with 
// the -http parameter. Do so at your own risk.
